• Time and day of week must to be set.
• At any time the temperature may be manually adjusted ‘UP’ or ‘DOWN’.
FLAME MODE
• Temperature control is over ridden and the flame size can be set to any setting from F7 highest to
F1 lowest. Note: When the fire first ignites it remains on highest flame for the first 45 seconds
before changing to the selected flame height.
• Time and day of week does not need to be programmed.
MANUALLY OVERRIDING THE SET PROGRAM
At any time, the temperature or fan speed may be adjusted ‘up’ or ‘down’ similarly to operating in
‘Manual’ mode. However, whenever the thermostat changes to a new time period, the temperature
will be set automatically according to that period’s setting.
PROGRAM MODES
The appliance can be programmed to operate during four separate periods in one day, resulting in a
possible 28 operating periods per week. A weekday program can be set so the program is used
Monday to Friday. Similarly, a weekend program can be set for Saturday to Sunday. The entire week
can also have the same program.
FLAME HEIGHT AND FAN SPEED
The flame height and fan speed are not individually adjustable. The flame height and fan speeds are
selected by the microprocessor according to the difference between the set temperature and the
ambient temperature of the room.
The flame can be between low and high depending if the set temperature has been reached, the
microprocessor will select the correct fan speed and flame height appropriate to the temperature
selected, i.e.; if the room is cold and a higher temperature is selected the unit will respond with a large
flame and high fan speed. As the air temperature in the room reaches the set temperature the flame
and fan speed will reduce in unison accordingly.

you have purchased the controller as a spare part then refer to the following.
Initial setup, synchronising the controller to your Symmetry heater, required only if the
controller is purchased as a spare or replacement part.
Before proceeding with synchronisation ensure that the gas and electricity are
connected.
Two controllers CAN NOT be used at the same time!
Remote Controller -
Synchronisation Step 1. Turn the power off at the power point for a minimum of

POWER DISRUPTION
In the event of power failure / disruption the heater will turn 'OFF' and will need to be manually
turned 'ON' again when power is restored. This is a safety feature. Refer to, “* Note: Once the
'Manual Switch Mode' has been selected the heater will only operate by pressing the ‘Manual
Switch’, once you have pressed the ‘Manual Switch’ the heater will not respond to the remote
controller.” on page 14.

Rinnai Australia 15 Operation & Installation Manual
CARE AND MAINTENANCE
Your heater needs very little maintenance, but the following information will help you to keep it looking
good and working efficiently.
GENERAL OPERATION CHARACTERISTICS
SERVICE
Rinnai recommend that this appliance and installation be inspected and serviced every 2 years or
more frequently.
If the power supply cord or any other component of the heater are damaged, they must be replaced
by Rinnai or a suitably qualified person.
Any service or repair work should only be carried out by an authorised person. Rinnai has service and
spare parts departments nationally. See back cover for contact details.
DO NOT attempt to clean the heater while the appliance is hot or operating.
All parts of the heater can be cleaned using a soft, damp cloth.
DO NOT use solvents or abrasives to clean any parts.
DO NOT spray aerosols in the vicinity of the heater whilst in operation.
DO NOT place articles on or against this heater.
DO NOT store flammable materials near this heater.
NOTE: Before asking for a service call please check the following table as these characteristics are
part of the normal operation of the appliance and do not indicate a fault.
CHARACTERISTIC EXPLANATION
At ignition:
Warm air does not start when the burner
lights. The room fan air is started automatically after a
short delay. This is to allow the heat exchanger to
warm up, helping to avoid cold draughts.
Smoke or strange smells are produced on
the first start up after installation. This is caused by grease, oil or dust on the heat
exchanger. This will stop after a short time.
Sharp clicking noises at ignition, or when the
unit thermostat modulates to a lower or
higher setting, or shuts down.
This is simply expansion and contraction noise
from the heat exchanger.
During combustion:
Dull clunking noise when the thermostat
operates This is the sound of the solenoid gas valves
opening and closing to regulate the gas flow.
When the appliance is turned off:
Convection fan continues to run after turning
‘OFF’. This is to remove residual heat from the heat
exchanger and stops once the appliance cools.
Service calls for general cleaning, maintenance and wear and tear are not necessarily
covered under the warranty. Service calls of this nature may be chargeable.
Faults caused by insufficient gas supply, gas quality, installation errors or operation
errors are not covered by the Rinnai warranty. Refer to separate Warranty Card for
details.

TROUBLE SHOOTING CHECKLIST
Use the following chart to help determine whether a service call is required, however if you are unsure
about the way your heater is operating, contact Rinnai or your local agent.
ABNORMAL FLAME PATTERN
Each Rinnai Flame Fire heater has a distinct flame pattern. The flame should look the same every
time you start your heater, after an initial warm up period of approximately 15 minutes.
Abnormal flame performance and/or pattern can indicate a problem with your heater, such as blocked
gas injectors or artificial logs/burn media may have shifted from when the heater was first installed.
There are some warning signs that could indicate a problem. If any of the signs below occur, please
contact Rinnai.
Signs of abnormal flame performance:
• Continuous unusual smell from the appliance.
• Continued difficulty or delay in establishing a flame.

• Flame only burns part way across the burner.
